There comes a point when you suspect the acronym has got too long to be practically useful. Such a one is MMORPG, but I'd happily wallow in its silliness for hours if it meant avoiding the MMORPG that this post is about...

Yes, the online multiplayer world of Hello Kitty is almost with us. You can subscribe to the closed beta for now, but it will soon be open to all. Players will pilot their character's way through Flower Kingdom, London, Paris, Moscow, Tokyo and more, solving puzzles and creating a virtual world around them as they go. Linked to SanrioTown.com this aims to bring together all the virtues of social networking, Warcraft-esque multiplayer games and Second Life-style communities. Put like that, you can almost forget that the blasted cat is at the centre of it... Almost. But, sadly, not completely.

I just assumed this was already running when South Park did that Warcraft episode...

My kids have like 9 webkinz as it is. If they hear about this it may push me over the edge.
